Did Ned Fulmer cheat on his wife Ariel? Inside the rumor about the ex-Try Guys member as he admits to cheating.
It can be dangerous to get sucked into the world of online theories and conspiracies, but sometimes, the rumors turn out to be true.
Recently, speculation began swirling that Ned Fulmer, one member of the Try Guys on YouTube, cheated on his wife.
What makes this extra ironic is that Ned is the member of the group who spends the most time talking about how much he loves his wife. So, did he really cheat on his wife Ariel, fans do want to know.
Did Ned Fulmer actually cheat?
On Sept. 27, after hours during which the internet was on fire with speculation, Ned took to Twitter and admitted he cheated on his wife, Ariel. “Family should have always been my priority, but I lost focus and had a consensual workplace relationship,” Ned stated.
“I’m sorry for any pain that my actions may have caused to the guys and the fans, but most of all to Ariel. The only thing that matters right now is my marriage and my children, and that’s where I am going to focus my attention.”
In an Instagram statement of her own, Ned’s wife Ariel asked for fans to respect her family’s privacy at this time. “Thanks to everyone who has reached out to me — it means a lot,” she wrote. “Nothing is more important to me and Ned than our family, and all we request right now is that you respect our privacy for the sake of our kids.”
Rumors began to swirl when Ned didn’t appear in any videos or content beginning in early September. Then, they exploded when a user on Reddit claimed that they had taken a video of Ned making out with one of his employees, Alexandria Herring, and sent it to someone else who eventually sent it to Ned’s wife, Ariel.
The user who eventually sent the video to Ariel claims that they talked about it for an hour. Will Thayer, who is Alexandria’s fiancé, has now unfollowed her on social media and returned his account to private.
Ned is no longer working with the Try Guys.
On Sept. 27, minutes before Ned’s own statement, the Try Guys announced via Twitter that Ned is no longer working with the group.
“Ned Fulmer is no longer working with The Try Guys,” the statement reads. “As a result of a thorough internal review, we do not see a path forward together. We thank you for your support as we navigate this change.”
While many fans think this kind of cheating scandal is really a personal issue, it’s worth remembering that Ned has fostered an image as the ultimate wife guy. What’s more, he even roped Ariel into creating content for the platform, which only makes the whole thing feel even weirder, and makes it both a personal problem and a business one.
